        Fighting a guerilla war with WW I tactics is called "losing". (n/t) - Bowser - 5/6/2009 3:21:13 PM
        
        You almost wrote "WWII" didn't you? :) (n/t) - TB - 5/6/2009 5:07:40 PM
        
        No. It was deliberate, but it's not quite accurate. Neither is WWII. Nor Korea. Vietnam is. (n/t) - Bowser - 5/7/2009 12:04:24 AM

      - Glad to hear that. I am hoping that, sooner or later, such measures will overthrow the so-called "government" of Iran. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 5/7/2009 11:55:00 AM
